This is such bullshite; they know how these prices are set. It just shows how shallow, dishonest, and weak the Biden Administration is. Now they can say: we asked them to lower prices and they won't = boo hoo bad corporate man.
It's the same as the gas tax and blaming republicans. Has one democratic state lowered the state tax yet? That's right, not a one.

Someone should warn this brain-dead moron not to spend billions of taxpayer money to forgive student loans during a real recession!

Sorry man. I usually agree with your industry takes, but I fully believe that President Biden is dragging the entire oil & gas industry and their record profits into his “warnings”. If gas stations to raise prices because their supply distribution is restricted by the storm, the mantra from the Democrat Party will be that evil Exxon, Chevron and Shell price-gouged Americans during a hurricane.
Read the article. They always go after the station, who is just dispersing supply through pricing.

I did. And other articles related to make sure I wasn’t missing anything.
I’m just telling you my belief that he’s going to try to pin any price upticks with the storm on the industry as a whole.

I'm not saying its not possible but it would be an extreme stretch. Oil is still down for the quarter and RBOB is down $4. The "gouging" is going to be very localized.
In the past, when a hurricane came through GOM production (LA/TX gulf coast) and production was shut-in and refineries were offline and commodity prices went up nationally, you would see them try to tar the industry for "gouging"...just a different situation, GOM and refineries not hit. It would be a huge stretch with where commodity prices are currently.
We're going to find out, though, so.
